Atletico selling Julian Alvarez to Barcelona is entirely their choice.
Sell him. Don't sell him. Ask for €200m if you want. He's your player and you're perfectly entitled to do what you think is best for your club.
But please, spare me the holier-than-thou act about "ethics", "professionalism" and Barcelona negotiating in bad faith.
Where was all this concern for good faith when Atletico had an agreement with Barca that would require them to pay €40m for Griezmann if he played 45+ minutes in 50% of the games he was available for?
Their solution?
Keep one of their best players on the bench and repeatedly bring him on around the 60th minute so those games wouldn't count towards the clause.
Everyone knew what was happening. Griezmann knew. Simeone knew. Barca knew. The entire football world knew.
And eventually Barca, who desperately needed the money at the time, settled for roughly half the original €40m fee.
Was it within Atletico's contractual rights? Sure.
Was it this wonderful display of "good faith" and sporting ethics that they suddenly seem so passionate about in 2026?
Come on.
Football clubs look after their own interests. Atletico did it then. Barcelona are doing it now. That's the game.
So keep Julian. Sell Julian. Send him to Arsenal. Do whatever you want.
Just drop the saint act while doing it.
You cannot spend years playing the transfer market with every trick available to you and then suddenly discover the moral high ground when the sword falls on the other foot.

Don’t fall for the fake Fox/GOP outrage. Two weeks ago the House passed a bill that greenlighted the transfer of Spanish territory to Morocco. Every Republican except me voted for it, but now THEY are acting shocked at the invasion.
